My son was an IVF miracle - but 11 years on we discovered the clinic had made a shocking mistake. It changed our family in a way no one could have predicted...

He had sat with the phone number for two weeks, knowing that calling it would change his life for ever. And so it remained on his notepad – a random line of digits Vanner Johnson was too terrified to punch into his phone. When eventually he summoned the courage to make the call, he did it alone – his wife, Donna, was far too stressed to be in the room.

Rosamund Pike recalls getting punched and mugged while on the phone with her mom: 'All she heard was me scream'

Rosamund Pike is opening up about a casual phone call home that became a traumatic incident for the actress and her mother. The Wheel of Time star has revealed that she was once walking the streets of London while chatting with her mom when someone sped by on a bike and mugged her. "I was on the phone to my mother, on a mobile phone walking along a road, and I was mugged," Pike recalled during a recent visit to Magic Radio. "The phone was snatched, so all she heard was me scream and a thud, and the phone went dead." But it wasn't just a drive-by mugging — Pike said the culprit also "punched me down the side of my cheek" before grabbing the phone from her hand. She said that in the moment she was "angry," but also knew that because of the abruptly ended phone call, she wasn't the only one who had to endure the fear and panic. "I walked to the pub and called [my mom] when I got there and met my friends," Pike said. "But for her, it was probably a pretty horrible 15 minutes." A representative for the actress has clarified that the attack took place in 2006. Later in the conversation, Pike and her Hollow Road costar Matthew Rhys pointed out that a similar incident is at the center of their new film, which recently debuted in the U.K. The thriller stars Pike and Rhys as parents who receive a distressing late-night call from their teenage daughter and, after racing to her location, find themselves stumbling through a disturbing series of revelations. While her mugging and attack occurred over a decade ago, Pike was recovering from another facial injury just last year when she walked the Golden Globes red carpet in January to celebrate her movie Saltburn's several nominations. The actress was wearing a lacy veiled headpiece that doubled as a fashion statement and a "protective" Dior veil. "I had an accident over Christmas, actually. I had a skiing accident," she explained on the red carpet. "And I had to think, that's not what you want knowing you're coming to the Golden Globes on the seventh of January."Pike said that when the accident occurred on Dec. 26, 2023, her face was "entirely smashed up and I thought I needed to do something." Though her injuries were mostly healed by the time the event came around, she opted not to waste the fashionable veil. Watch Pike recount her 2006 mugging on Magic Radio above.
